Textbooks for Atomic and Molecular quantum mechanics?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on self-study in quantum mechanics, specifically seeking recommendations for textbooks on atomic and molecular quantum mechanics. Participants express interest in furthering their knowledge and share their current resources, including "Molecular Quantum Mechanics" by Atkins and Friedman. One user mentions ordering a specific book from Amazon, which they find clear and easy to follow after reading a few chapters. The conversation highlights the importance of selecting the right textbooks in areas such as molecular quantum mechanics, molecular physics, quantum chemistry, and computational chemistry for effective self-study.

Hi, i am self studying quantum mechanics. I completed reading of "Quantum Physics_Eisberg, Resnick" and "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics - D. Griffiths". I want to study further on Atomic and Molecular quantum mechanics. Can anyone suggest me textbook on those topics?

Thanks in advance.

I'm interested in this too. So hopefully someone replies with specific recommendations.

I've been poking around amazon, and it looks like the main subject areas (based on tables of contents of various books) are:
Molecular quantum mechanics
Molecular physics
Quantum chemistry
Computational chemistry
 
I currently posses a book named "Molecular Quantum Mechanics_P Atkins__R. Friedman". But i am not sure is it worth reading.

Recommendation Please.
 
Thank u redrzewski.
 

Thread 'List of STEM Masterworks: THE SUMMARY'

This thread only works as a summary from the original source: List of STEM Masterworks in Physics, Mechanics, Electrodynamics... The original thread got very long and somewhat hard to read so I have compiled the recommendations from that thread in an online (Google Drive) spreadsheet. SUMMARY Permits are granted so you can make comments on the spreadsheet but I'll initially be the only one capable of edition. This is to avoid the possibility of someone deleting everything either by mistake...

Thread 'Hassani's books on Mathematical Physics/Methods'

By looking around, it seems like Dr. Hassani's books are great for studying "mathematical methods for the physicist/engineer." One is for the beginner physicist [Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields] and the other is [Mathematical Physics: A Modern Introduction to Its Foundations] for the advanced undergraduate / grad student. I'm a sophomore undergrad and I have taken up the standard calculus sequence (~3sems) and ODEs. I want to self study ahead in mathematics...
